Description
From Wonder Woman 1984 (left) to Batman comics, perhaps no national memorial has been featured more widely in popular culture and entertainment than the Lincoln Memorial. Faith Salie of NPR’s “Wait, Wait…Don’t Tell Me” and CBS Sunday Morning joins the National Park Service’s Mike Litterst for a look at some of the best-known examples across film, television, comics and more, and also considers how these uses have helped shape the cultural meaning of the Lincoln Memorial over the past 100 years. NOTE: Program takes place at the Sylvan Theater, on the southwest grounds of the Washington Monument at 15th Street SW and Independence Avenue SW.
